Digitizing Cultural Heritage through Youth Innovation

Join the Erasmus+ KA210-YOU Project – HERITTECH

We are excited to introduce HERITTECH: Digitizing Cultural Heritage through Youth Innovation, an Erasmus+ KA210-YOU project that empowers young people to actively engage in cultural heritage preservation through digital tools such as 3D modeling, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR).

Project Overview
Cultural heritage is at risk due to neglect, decay, and limited access, making it crucial to explore innovative digital solutions for preservation. HERITTECH leverages youth innovation and technology to digitize cultural artifacts, promote heritage awareness, and foster intercultural dialogue. The project creates youth-led digital exhibitions, interactive workshops, and hackathons to ensure the sustainable protection and promotion of cultural heritage.

Key Objectives
- Equip youth with digital skills (3D modeling, AR/VR, and digital storytelling) for cultural preservation.
- Raise awareness of cultural heritage and encourage innovation in its digital representation.
- Promote intercultural exchange by involving diverse youth groups in digitization efforts.
- Develop youth leadership through cultural hackathons, digital workshops, and exhibitions.
